Revelations Yoga-Birth

A Brief History behind the Birth of Revelations Yoga Vedanta Books & More

My inspiration for this venture is my grandfather’s brother, Sri Veluri Eshwar. Philosophy and Spirituality have been a part of my family for many generations.

My grandmother was a philosopher, well versed in Sanskrit, and lived a life of Meditation.
My grandfather wrote many articles in English, Telugu, and Bengali for Newspapers, Journals, and Literary Magazines; one of them being a popular Telugu (Language of India) literary magazine called Bharati. My forefathers were Sanskrit scholars, philosophers, and writers; Themes for their writings were social and Spiritual.

They practiced yogic life and Spirituality. Some practiced Spirituality continuing in Grihastha ashram, and some adopted Sannyasa ashram. My great grandfather, Veluri Chandrasekhara Sastry, meditated for several years and acquired some Yoga Siddhis. He was closely associated with Sri Aurobindo.

My great grandfather’s brother, Velury Sivarama Sastry, was a Dahara Vidyopasaka, practice of Dahara Vidya, where mind is dissolved in the process (Mano Laya Yoga). He was revered as Pundit, Sataavadhani, and Brahmasri

He was a SatAvadhAni. "AvadhAnis are born poets with a high intellectual caliber". AvadhAni is one who successfully performs the AvadhAnam; the group who queries the performer is the prucchakas. AvadhAnam is a literary performance in Sanskrit and other languages of India. It requires immense memory power and in depth knowledge of literature, and prosody, and ability to create poems. The number of Prucchakas can be 8 (ashtAvadhAnam) or 100 (satAvadhAnam) or even 1000 (sahasrAvadhAnam)!

Brahmasri, SatAvadhAni Veluri Sivarama Satry was eighteen years old when he performed his most famous sampoorna satAvadhAnam; he rendered a beautiful (Yes! na bhootO nabhavishyati/ neither before him in the past, nor in the future) Sanskrit poetic VarNana/description on NrusiMha (half lion-half man avatar of Sri Maha Vishnu of ancient Hindu scripture):

He was among the pioneers of Telugu short story writers. Some of his Telugu short stories are : “Ekaavali Kadhalu Gadhalu”, "Depression chembu", "Vyatyam", "Ananda Trayam", "Thaalu Kuttanamu", "Vyasavani" etc. Main theme of many of his short stories was centered around the social life of middle class, vanities of educated youth etc.

My grandfathers’ brothers have been involved not only in the publication of Spiritual and related books but also in selling Spiritual books.
